2024 Ford F-150 Model Review with Prices, Photos, & Specs

The Ford F-150 defines the American pickup truck. The best-selling model from any brand by far, the F-150 stays at the top of America’s favorite truck list by continuing to evolve and offer benefits you just won’t find on the slower-evolving competitors. That means advances like aluminum construction, turbocharged engines, a hybrid option, and a fully electric variant in the form of the F-150 Lightning. It’s loaded with advanced driver’s aid technology that goes a step further and makes towing a lot easier as well. There’s available onboard power for tools or camping gear, and the interior converts into a mobile office. A wide variety of trims mean that you can configure your F-150 just right for whatever your needs, from a utilitarian work truck to a posh highway towing vehicle, and everything in between.

Ford F-150 buyers have plenty of excellent choices when it comes to powertrain options. The Ford F-150 boasts best-in-class towing, payload, and horsepower ratings, leading the segment in overall performance. There is even the option of a hybrid powertrain, the 3.5-liter PowerBoost™ V6. The Powerboost offers the most torque and horsepower of any light-duty full-size pickup, while also delivering an EPA-estimated range of approximately 700 miles and a targeted 12,000 pound maximum towing capacity. With 430 horsepower and 570 lb-ft of torque on board, you’ll be the king of the road whether you’re hauling lumber or a load of groceries. The secret is a 35-kilowatt (47-horsepower) electric motor built into the transmission. Of course, the beloved 5.0 liter Coyote V8 is still available, as well as a selection of eager Ecoboost V6 engines. All F-150 models feature the smooth-shifting 10-speed SelectShift® automatic transmission as standard equipment.

Ford’s high-tech SYNC® 4 system is now standard equipment for the Ford F-150. SYNC® 4 includes an available 12-inch center touchscreen as well as Co-Pilot360™ 2.0. Co-Pilot360™ 2.0 keeps you aware of potentially dangerous situations on the road to keep you safe with on-demand real-time mapping. With SYNC AppLink®, you can utilize apps such as Waze and Ford+Alexa. Of course, both Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ compatibility is included. Active Drive Assist allows you to experience hands-free driving on more than 100,000 miles of divided highways in all 50 states and Canada, while Active Park Assist 2.0 can help you get into a tight space at the push of a button. The F-150 is the first full-size pickup in North America with standard over-the-air updates, so there’s no need to periodically visit the dealership to download the latest software (but you’re always welcome to visit).
